Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •1\. Adult men or women aged 50 years and older (with no upper age limit).
- •2\. Fracture of the femoral neck confirmed with either anteroposterior and lateral hip radiographs, computed tomography, or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
- •3\. Any degree of displacement (i.e., undisplaced or displaced) of the femoral neck fracture that can be closed reduced.
- •4\. Operative treatment of displaced fractures within 2 days (i.e., 48 hours) of presenting to the emergency room.
- •5\. Operative treatment of undisplaced fractures within 7 days of presenting to the emergency room.
- •6\. Patient was ambulatory prior to fracture, though they may have used an aid such as a cane or a walker.
- •7\. Anticipated medical optimalization for operative fixation of the hip by anesthesia and/or internal medicine team.
- •8\. Provision of informed consent by patient or legal guardian.
- •9\. Low energy fracture (defined as a fall from standing height).
- •10\. No other major trauma.
Exclusion Criteria
- •1\. Patients not suitable for internal fixation (i.e., severe osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or pathologic fracture).
- •2\. Associated major injuries of the lower extremity (i.e., ipsilateral or contralateral fractures of the foot, ankle, tibia, fibula, knee, or femur; dislocations of the ankle, knee, or hip; or femoral head defects or fracture).
- •3\. Retained hardware around the affected hip.
- •4\. Infection around the hip (i.e., soft tissue or bone).
- •5\. Patients with disorders of bone metabolism other than osteoporosis (i.e., Paget\*s disease, renal osteodystrophy).
- •6\. Moderate or severe cognitively impaired patients (i.e., Six Item Screener with 3 or more errors).
- •7\. Patients with Parkinson\*s disease (or dementia) severe enough to increase the likelihood of falling or severe enough to compromise rehabilitation.
- •8\. Likely problems, in the judgment of the investigators, with maintaining follow\-up.
